Honestly, in terms of a server that can do well and that everyone enjoys, its gotta be WW3RP. However, if its gonna happen, please, for the love of god fix everything that was previously wrong with it. I mean, come on, how can you be immersed and enjoy it when you've got Victoria Secret Models running around in full Combat Gear, BOTH SD's running and supporting the same Faction, SF for both sides becoming an Army within an Army, along with having a bigger circle jerk than Hitler and the fucking Third Reich.

I could go on and on about other problems it had back at LP, but it depends on whether or not we continue with the original 1980's setting or move to something more Modern such as combating Terrorism rather than Russians. Regardless, removing the problems and bringing WW3 back would be amazing

Orlando Shooting RP.

Too soon?

Anyway, I've always had a knack for SupernaturalRP.

Like, an alternate universe where humans live with almost all forms of supernatural entities, like zombies, werewolves, vampires, even the less known shit like wendigos, skinwalkers, wraiths, etc.

Not on a level where the government is all like "KEEP IT A SECRET NO ONE CAN KNOW" But it's a widely known fact that humans are living with these creatures. Some people have learnt to live with them, giving excess food to the zombies, sparing blood to vampires, sparing the odd animal to werewolves. Other have tried their best to make them all extinct. And everyone agrees that the ones that cannot be lived with have gotta go.

I'd love to see RP of a casual conversation between a dude and a ghost living in an apartment.

"Hey, Dave."
"Helloooooo Jaaaaamieee..."
"Alright, no need to be so patronising, man."

And I think @alex said WW3RP isn't gonna happen, sadly.

10 people that are the best of the best from each faction, hardly an "army" in a literal sense - it's more like being good at the game who can kill countless enemy squads

also using "MUH CIRCLEJERK!!" as an argument is fucking dumb honestly, who would you rather? people that you /know/ are good and trustworthy or complete randoms?

hardly anyone wants to rp as a terrorist full-time

Not size-wise, but purpose-wise. Both SF's had their own Engineers, Medics and Snipers, which pretty much made the normal Infantry and other Divisions paperweights

Trustworthy people are always good, yes, but surely other people who play the server and enjoy it should be allowed as much of an equal chance as others, no?

I'm not talking the Middle-East Terrorists like ISIS, I'm talking more of the groups whose members are all different Races like those seen in games such as Rainbow Six Siege.

SF have a huge reputation to uphold as the best of the best, accepting complete unknowns is a sure-fire way to ruin that reputation if they're bad at the game

not to mention SF are supposed to be competent so it'd have to be people that you know are actually good

WW3RP implies two or more superpowers fighting, not terror cells

Regardless, thats not saying that Unknowns can simply be given the opportunity to prove themselves, no?

I know that Special Forces IRL specialize, but there are two big factors about SF's across the Globe. Almost all of them operate at their Peak when they are completely limited on resources information, and almost all SF's are designed for short, quick operations, not going out on Patrols about 3-5 times an Hour

Depends. Some Governments are pretty Corrupt, and are heavily believed to provide support to some Terrorist Organisations in an attempt to make their country better off. If a Terrorist Group was to trigger it all off, it'd essentially lead to everyone quickly becoming unable to trust each other. That, or if the Terrorist Cell gains enough Support and Members from people all across the globe, I'd say it'd more-or-less be a World War.

I'd like to see some sort of RP game based on a space colony living in some kind of big space station where there are civilians, sci-fi styled police forces and even extraterrestrial beings that live among the rest of the people and are up to no good. Maybe even get a map that has multiple space stations that have their own economy and relationship with one another, which can either bring situations where they attack one another or prepare shady plans to try and fuck up the other stations without having anyone to know.
Just imagine the possibilities if it is done right.

complete unknowns already have the opportunity to prove themselves - but that means proving their worth in the first place to the faction leaders so that their application is even considered

aka they have to prove themselves before they can even step foot in the SF faction, why would you let a random PV2 who has been playing on the server for less than a week accompany SF on a dangerous PK-risk operation such as infiltrating the enemy FOB?

[citation needed]

you're forgetting that WW3RP SF operate from a fully-functional, frequently-supplied FOB - not to mention SF are actually designed to be able to survive from being cut off from supplies for at least a few days.

world war also has the secondary implication of most if not the whole world at war, which was the case with Coalition vs Globalists

Hm, I see where you are coming from. I suppose I'm mostly saying that after hearing some stuff in the past about how Applications had been rigged for specific people to get through, which is kinda fucked imo

Perhaps, but its a different story when you've literally got about 50 Password-Locked Containers filled with Guns and Equipment while everyone else has to Purchase their Stuff

Fair enough. Its only because I personally believe that the whole "MURICA! FREEDOM AND GUNS!" vs "CHEEKI BREEKI RUSH B FOR MOTHER RUSSIA!" has just gotten WAY too stale and repetitive, hence why a Large Terrorist Cell may be able to provide diversity and enough change that is so desperately needed

that sounds really cool but i honestly think in that case everyone would want to play the good guy military and save the world

or maybe something like makarov who made the whole world fight eachother, but they came together in the end to realize he was pulling the strings

rigged is a far cry, in my experience not many applied for UCTF so there wasn't much choice - and people that I knew were trustworthy and competent were favoured over the unknowns

stockpiling equipment and munitions is common - also last time i checked it was like 5 containers lol, using hyperbole to bring your point across isn't the best thing to do

NATO vs Coalition would be my preferred choice

Thing is, there was no "CHEEKI BREEKI RUSH B FOR MOTHER RUSSIA!" in WW3RP legacy lore because Russia was neutral and didn't affiliate with either faction - it was mainly Middle-Eastern, South American, Chinese etc

fun fact: Coalition is similar if not identical to the ARMA 3 faction CSAT

Hence aforementioned support from Corrupt Government and Organisations, meaning that nobody knows who the Good Guys are or who are the Bad Guys.

or maybe something like homefront? you could alter the storyline or something and say the coalition ultimately dominated the globalists, but there's still large amounts of resistance in globalist countries

or the other way around idk

----------------------------------------------------------

or some of extremely well done galactic civil war role-play? i think with the large amount of different races, planets to fight on, and just overall futuristic feel and weaponry taking place in the star wars universe it could be fun.

not to mention instead of playing civilians people could play bounty hunters, smugglers, jedi, sith, black sun terrorists or anything else they can think of

I'm taking more to do with after Dallas' Lore Overhaul rather than Coals vs Globs

Yes, but not when one group gets everything back that they had for Free and everyone else has to buy all of their stuff back after they die

I know, but one of the biggest complaints that I've encountered was that many people played Globs and hardly any played Coals simply because most people wanted the variety of characters that could be achieved on Globs, as oppose to simply a choice of China or Russia. With Terrorism however, it should mean that the only difference between the factions are the reasons they fight for and their names.

all that was stockpiled in WW3RP was enemy uniforms, rare weaponry and rare ammunition such as .50 AE and anything not in our vendor or the infantry vendor - we still had to fork out insane amounts for suppressors, ELCAN's, grenades etc

i literally just explained to you that Russia was neutral and there was little-to-none Russian characters on Coalition or Glob sides

and what? Coalition offered a variety of characters as well, as it also had the composition of most of the Eastern Bloc - Albania, Algeria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Philippines etc

anyone who says "MUH VARIETY OF CHARACTERS" i will not take seriously
